McKinsey is to the middle class what flesh-eating bacteria is to healthy tissue.

Holy shit, this writer pulls no punches.

Privilege is everything. If you have enough money you can avoid the consequences of anything

I would love to have notable information pop up but we both know it would devolve into something between Ow My Balls and the RESUME VIEWING episode of Black Mirror.

you know how banks will say "Past performance of financial securities does not represent potential future performance" or whatever: this is much the same thing. There are plenty of things that people freaked out about that turned out to be nothing much. There are plenty of things that people did not freak out about when they really should have. People are basically shit about telling the difference between them.

Why has this taken THIS LONG to get this far? Anybody else would have been rendered penniless within a year, tops.

the windows save menu has remained mostly the same since win3. Office products used the regular windows save menu for ages. Then suddenly they introduce a monstrosity that takes up the whole screen and throws decades of useful design out the window. If i describe it further I shall descend into madness

Same, but for Excel.

Also, JFC the save menu in Office 365 is Cthulhu-level madness.

a) Certainly. b) FYI it's "senseless drivel" which sounds almost exactly the same.

 

I made this :) This band is still the most fun music project I've ever been involved in. Please have a listen, on the platform of your choice.

Hey there Lemmy.world ! I'm in a band called The Three Leonards. We cover pop songs in a jazzy style that might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We have two full albums of songs, streaming everywhere:

and a YT channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVvcGe1tlxijGPV-kEJ_xpg

 

Hello Lemmy.world! I'm a member of The Three Leonards. We do covers of pop songs in a playful jazzy style which might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, or Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We might even remind you of that one time you tried mushrooms with those degens from upcountry. We're not here to judge: life is just like that sometimes. You do you. And while you do you, whether you're on mushrooms or not, you should listen to our music. Because it's fun. And because you've probably never asked yourself: "What would it sound like if Leonard Cohen did a cover of Toxic by Britney Spears?" And now you don't have to ask yourself. It's right there.

Feel the groove. Feel the love. Feel The Len.

 

We finally released our second album! featuring Bette Davis Eyes, Your Woman, Slave To Love, and many more. We even do a cover of Toxic. Yes, Toxic by Britney Spears. I know, right?
